After fighting with EMC9 for quite some time, I've finally given up. Was running it on both XP Pro and MCE, both SP2. Movie Maker would go crazy when it was installed, and not work right; even after uninstalling EMC9, Movie Maker would still have issues. Full format/reinstall of the OS was done, and verified that EMC9 was the source of the problem.
That being said, after EMC9 was uninstalled, the services for it (UPnP and the other one) were still there. Could not find a way to get rid of them without manually searching thru the registry for every instance of "Roxio" and manually, one-by-one, deleting the keys!
Before anyone says "IE7", or "DivX", or "WMP11" or whatever, I tried all those. Like I said, a fresh install of the OS was done, then all security updates (minus IE7 and WMP11) was done, and then EMC9 was installed. Same problem every time.
Now, the issue is that I've manually cleaned the registry on one PC, but I have 4 others to do. I'd rather NOT go thru and search the registry and delete the keys one-by-one on each PC, since it's time consuming and a PITA. I did find the EMC5/6 cleaning tool, but that didn't work for EMC9. I've given up on Roxio; I just want it gone, off the machines completely, and no traces of it left. Is there a tool for EMC9 that will do this, or do I have to do it manually on each PC?
